    I know nothing about the boats, but as someone quoted Pascoe in support
    of them I think I should mention what he said about them in his book,
    "Mid Size Power Boats":

    "Gulfstar

    This long defunct company started up in St. Petersburg, Florida in 1971
    and produced a very large number of sailboats and low price round bilge
    trawlers from 36 to 53 feet. Unfortunately, their hulls were fraught
    with problems, often of a serious nature. Since I know these boats
    well, I can say that I know of no rhyme or reason why some go bad and
    others don't. Large numbers of them have deteriorated to the point of
    no return. At this point in time, I wouldn't suggest these boats as a
    viable option to all but the most desperate to own a larger boat.
    Caveat emptor."
